The invention belongs to the technical field of a
maser and discloses a Q-switching device and method for a
maser working in the
room temperature earth
magnetic field. According to the method, a control panel, a
voice coil motor and a
laser are started, the motor is driven through a control panel
driving circuit, the frequency and range of the
voice coil motor moving back and forth are set, a
limit switch is set to prevent a resonant frequency tuning disk from bumping a resonant chamber during movement, a
grating scale sensor QH-200 outputs a
signal with specific waveform to the control panel,the initial position is set, a
signal is outputted by the control panel to the
laser, a power peak of the output
microwave from a
coupling ring is observed by an
oscilloscope, after debugging is completed, setting of the initial position is changed, the situation of the i-th work is observed, the power peak of the output
microwave is recorded, the Q-switching position is determined through continuously narrowing the range, the final position is finally calibrated, and Q-switching of the
maser is completed. The method is advantaged in that problems of relatively low output power and efficiencyexisting in the maser working in the
room temperature earth
magnetic field can be effectively solved.
